Boost and Sync were my top two over the years. Happy to see Boost is making this switch too!

Oh yeah, this is definitely hot! Shoot me up there into the endless fediverse! It's time to discover all those niche galaxies riding a nice vessel!

I was a RIF user and would like to see something similar over here. RIF feed is over. Rip.

Boost wasn't just my favorite Reddit app but my favorite App in general. I love the clean design so much. When the Lemmy App is released I will launch the Rocket to the Moon

As a long term user of Boost for reddit, I'm so hyped by this now!!!!

[–] CosmicExplorer 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The promise of Boost for Lemmy is what got me to sign up.

Nice, Boost was my reddit app of choice

[–] Bosa 12 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Yes this is great! Between this and wefwef which is Apollo lookalike right now for iOS ppl this is great! Just need everyone over to Lemmy now but that'll prob take decades

I was so happy when I found this out. I hope Lemmy gets the support.

[–] majere 11 points 2 years ago

I'm in! Unless rif goes to lif, in which case cheers all around :)

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

I'm a sync guy but this news has me so excited. I will try Boost for Lemmy when it comes out and likely support it anyways.

[–] blank3468 11 points 2 years ago

I used Boost to browse reddit. I'm definitely getting this when it's out.

[–] gtfomyinterweb 10 points 2 years ago

It's the reason I finally decided to create a Lemmy account. Been a Boost user for many years.

[–] contra 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Still not 100% sold on Lemmy, but Boost with a good implementation could be the thing that changes my mind!

Really happy that Boost and Sync are coming to Lemmy. WefWef.app has been a good replacement for Apollo on the iOS side

I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.

[–] Gruntyfish 10 points 2 years ago

This is so exciting! I used boost for reddit for 6 years and loved it! Can't wait to use it with lemmy

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Kudos to developer!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Never knew pre-registration for apps was a thing. Signed up for this one, looking forward to giving it a go

This sad day is becoming a very hopeful day! I'm so glad! 🥳

[–] kratoz29 10 points 2 years ago

It looks amazing on the preview images.

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink 9 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Great news! I loved boost for reddit.

I still can't believe spez did this. And continues to do this. What a prick

I love how a day ago he said he wasn't going to make an app and then changed his mind that quick. So damn excited!

[–] LordyLord 9 points 2 years ago

I was using it for last few years, and it's one of the best 3rd part app for reddit.

[–] Pyroglyph 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I thought Rubén said he was going to move onto smaller apps instead of making a Lemmy app?

Regardless, I'm glad this is happening!
